The Starlink Standard kit includes a 50 ft. shielded Ethernet cable, which carries power and data from the router to the dish. For permanent home installations, the Starlink cable is usually routed through an exterior wall. If the dish mounting location is far away from where the router will be placed, 50′ of cable might not be long enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you need a longer cable, there are a few options to consider. You can purchase the official 150′ cable directly from Starlink. A cheaper option is to buy an aftermarket Ethernet cable that meets the required specifications. The last option, which I will cover in this tutorial, is to make your own cable extension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Extending the existing 50′ Starlink cable is the best of both worlds. You get to keep the OEM moisture seals from the Starlink cable, and you can extend it to virtually any distance you need, up to about 150 ft. The best part of this method is that it’s much cheaper than any other solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
